[APPLE IPHONE 16 REVIEW]
Seventeen years after its 2G debut, the iPhone has become “the default phone” for the anecdotal average American - and this year, Apple has brought enough Pro features to the base model that the cheaper iPhone is an even better buy for most folks. But this is the first time I've ever needed to run a Beta to fully experience what most people will encounter when they buy an iPhone - and it's also the first time my mentions have been crowded with commenters asking what it's like to switch to Android. Join me for the MrMobile iPhone 16 Review!
[ABOUT MRMOBILE'S iPHONE 16 REVIEW]
MrMobile's iPhone 16 Review was produced following three weeks with an iPhone 16 review sample provided by Apple, which also furnished MrMobile with Plus, Pro and Pro Max samples, alongside a customized AirPods 4 set. Pre-production hardware running Beta software (iOS 18 Beta 3, 4 and 5).
MrMobile does not offer manufacturers the opportunity to preview, edit or approve content before publication. Neither Apple nor any other manufacturer provided compensation in exchange for this coverage.
Michael Fisher is co-founder of Clicks Technology, the sponsor of this video, which paid a fee to Future PLC (the publisher of MrMobile) for its promotion.

Theres a reason apple "stops" selling the 15 pro when the 16 is out.... Even at full price, the $100 more for last years pro is worth is over this years "normal" line

[@acadiachair]

The Galaxy S20 had a 120hz display. We are approaching 5 years now where Apple has been behind on that feature. You can argue that it started out as a pro feature. You can easily buy a phone for 300$ now with a 120hz display.

[@Mutio86]

A German tech KZbinr I watch said, that camera control might disappear in a few years like the touch bar did on the Macbook. And honeslty? I believe him. It's a nice to have but the placement sucks and the control just doesn't feel right. If anything I use it to just launch the camera and then switch immediately to onscreen controls again on my 16.

[@TheMrMobile]

Yeah, that's a possibility ... but I feel it's more likely Apple will relocate the button (or perhaps enlarge it). There's a lot of potential to be explored in a side-mounted touch control. It was fun to see HTC and Google try pressure-based solutions, but I think touch strips are possibly more likely to succeed. (Like I say in the video though, just give me half-press-to-focus 😄)

[@Mutio86]

@@TheMrMobile I definitely would bet on Apple relocating the button further down on the 17. Press to focus not being there yet but a software update seems very strange to me 😅

[@kamrankawishbilal6891]

After taxes and everything else the base iPhone 16 costs about $1800 over here in Turkey, so yeah :3

All the comments about the refresh rate actually comforted me, this cannot be overlooked, the infamous average user DOES notice it, even if they don't know what it is. Shout-out to that spot-on ending line at 12:12 and the awesome review as always, don't know what it is but I am engaged start to finish

[@dasit6034]

My phone supports 120hz but I use it at 60hz for the extra battery. I can see the difference when swapping between them but when sticking to just 60hz it feels smooth. Jitters are more important than max fps. My moms phone, same scenario.

I dual wield an iPhone XS and a galaxy s23 ultra and obviously I can tell the difference but it’s not a deal breaker at all.

Apples and oranges. Everyone interacts with their screen any time you use a phone, but I don’t know a single person who still transfers data from their phone over USB. People buy an iPhone because it works well and they know what they’re getting. A majority of consumers don’t have any concept of data transfer speeds, and if they have iCloud backup then 128gb is plenty.

I'm surprised you said that Apple's camera has an opinion this year because everything I've seen from apple and other reviews seems to imply apple has just given up on doing color in a way it sees fit and just gives you an option to do it yourself. I don't know if I would call it a negative its just. an odd change for a phone. there a comment that doesn't mention hz.

[@TheMrMobile]

Yeah, might have been poor phrasing on my part. I guess it would have been better to say that the iPhone allows you to add your own opinion, more easily (because the built-in editor is really good). Think I've been stuck on "opinionated" photography since that Xiaomi Mix Flip, which broke my brain a little.

[@rvnx]

It's a little funny that you mention the desire to switch to Android at the end. I've been an Android user since the inception of the Xperia phones, but the arrival of the 16 made me switch to iOS. There's something about how well integrated the ecosystem is into everything out there that has its own little appeal. It's not even so much about the hardware, but the experience. Especially when traveling a lot. Apple Pay is more universally accepted than anything else, Apps have features on iOS that are simply missing on Android or heavily gimped in some ways, and overall it just seems like that when smartphone integration comes to mind with companies, iOS gets there first. It's mainly this that has finally tempted me enough to switch, and while I miss certain aspects of Android (namely on the multitasking front), I can't deny that my iPhone feels a lot more "usable" in day-to--day life.

[@nmadden02]

Great review! When you say you can't see the difference between 60 and 120, you mean you literally cannot tell the difference between them? Or is it just subtle?

😂 if apple chose 60hz, they would not need to change anything, and they would save money, 90 hz would cost in practice the same as implementing a 120hz. That is why 90 hz is not a thing.

[@michaelcorcoran8768]

​​@@Noname-km3zxThe cost is negligible. The panels they're buying already have the capacity to use 120 so the lock is entirely software. It wouldn't cost Apple anything to let these things refresh at 90 HZ at least that's my understanding based on the sourcing of these displays. they are buying Samsung displays in bulk that support 120 so 90 be a software tweak for them. The only reason they do it is to create an incentive to upgrade to the pro model.

I went to the store to try the 16 and I was able to plainly see how slow the screen appeared. On Android, I felt like the 60hz phones were better and I at least I had the ability to tinker with the animation speeds and transitions. I think we have reached a point where some average consumers can see the difference. That being said, the 16 series is not much different from the 15 series except for AI and the RAM (which I am sure, helps). I tried the camera button and I hope it gets better with a software update because it felt...finicky. The cameras are what we expect, so is the update guarantee. It is a boring update. However, Apple isn't the only company with this issue. Aside from foldables, phones have become stagnant

No 120hz display no sale. It's actually comical at this point. I can't take a cell phone company who uses a 60hz screen on a product this expensive serious in any way.

Surprised how few people are talking about the AOD difference. Shopping for a new iPhone this year, and AOD is the single reason I'm opting for the Pro. The 5x and 120Hz are nice but I could take it or leave it. AOD on the other hand? Truly spoiled for me, turning an iPhone off and not seeing my wallpaper/notifications just feels like a waste of space.

I aint gonna lie. Ive missed having a shutter button since my windows phone. It alone makes me wanna swap. Still waiting for the 17 because i wanna see how it plays out

I think people forget that iPhones do tend to have a higher touch sampling rate so the 60hz looks smoother than 60hz on a budget android device. With that being said I hope they update to 90 next year.

[@DropshippersNightmare]

the issue with this comment is that I don't even know any budget android phones still running 60hz

Hey Phil is there 1:26 , remembering my days as an Ambassador on Mobile Nations, long time no see Phil, great review, I have heard many wrong things about this iteration of iphones (fixable with future software updates apparently), but if you are in the ecosystem you for sure will remain on it, maybe not updating to this version if not needed ... Well I am talking too much, nice video as always Captain

[@dtincworldnews8922]

Like I have said for all these videos, if you've never had an iPhone or an older model then go for it. But if you have the 14 or 15 then save some money unless you have to have the latest and greatest.

The electric glue isn't new I just watched a video about an old phone that did exactly this.
